i've had mine two months or so and i will drive the car tomorrow to school when the roads are all clear and all but right now im going snowboarding so PEACE?!?!!!!!!@@@@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
My SS has been the daily driver for the last 3 years but you can't even attempt to drive it in any amount of snow with the 275 tires. I just bought a 1988 4Runner to be my winter beater and it worked well today.
|
i have 275s/315s on mine, felt like i was on slicks when i was cruising :lol:
|
LOL yea.... my car can't make it up the small hill to get out of my neighborhood in snow, I just slide backwards....
AWD ABS new car ftw. :) Saw a lot of stupid last night. |
I used to drive my old 90 Firebird and 92 Camaro in the snow.
|
The first 8 years of driving ive only had an fbody. Ive driven in the snow dozens of times only got stuck bad once but ewing cops pushed me out with their bumper.
|
Am I the only one who cant go anywhere at all in the snow? I got stuck 4 times trying to move it out of my driveway last year to the neighbors driveway. Its a joke and half in the snow. I don't know how anyone can rely on it as their primary vehicle.
Here it is right where it belongs. http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._7887039_n.jpg |

i got stuck real bad last night and stuck this morning in my driveway which i think screwed up one of my axles. so in the garage it went till i get it checked out. |
I voted garage queen nice the Z sleeps indoors, but mine gets driven a lot in the nice weather. It humps out to Carlisle in June. It gets ~3000 miles on it (not last year, damn rain every other day). It almost wen on power tour last year until job paranoia hit. And it has seen rain a few times. But I don;t liek it. You have no idea how much better wipers are now than they were 30+ years ago.

I dunno. I like keeping my 2nd gen nice. Sorry I make enough money to have a DD and a nice Camaro. Parts don't fall off trees for old Camaros and there are too many bad drivers out there for me to take that car anywhere anytime. Although I'd wager it would be more reliable than 1/2 the 3rd & 4th gens on this site :p |

Creeper thats awesome. I cant believe you drive that beauty in the snow. Touche to you.
|
Will not see salt, snow, or ice. It's my dd so it does see rain but 400rwhp+bald 275's+winter weather=car in a ditch

could use some fresh paint here and there but overall decent shape for a 100k mile daily driver. it does what i need it to and doesn't ask any questions. i wish i could garage it but for now that's out of the question. |
No - it just sits in my driveway until someone buys it.... then I will be f body less
|
I used to drive my 92 RS, 98 T/A year round in all conditions and hated driving from Jackson to Pennsauken for work. I drove my 02 Z28 year round the 1st 2 years I had it, and had enough of that after I was able to to stop a few feet short of a 15 car pile-up on an entrance ramp on about 2" of ice. Bought the beater shortly after.
|
Drove the 67 year round for two years and the TA is driven everyday no matter what the weather. Got stuck parked at work a few times thats it. Weight in the back and get into second and its fine.
|
I saw a kid driving a red 1st gen ragtop firebird on rt 1 during rush hour tonight. :shock:

im not trying to say that fbodies shouldnt be taken care of. sure like any other car they should get their oil filter changed every two weeks and ger their oil changed every 4-6 weeks and get washed for 3-4 hours straight on the weekend and then polished and waxed for another couple hours. and the interior should be cleaned with a q-tip and nail polish remover every so often. yet an fbody is nothing more then just a car and should be treated as such. when they were build and designed they were built and designed to be driven on a daily basis as daily drivers so why shouldnt they be used for their intended purpose? after all they are cars they are not an investment. if you want to invest in somthing sell the camaro to some one who will love it enough to drive the hell out of it and take that money to wall street or if you would rather have something to look at sell the camaro and go by some sort of statue to put in your garage somthing that has no other purpose but to be looked at and admired. |
